Description

Shoelaces

本發明係有關於一種鞋帶。The present invention relates to a shoelace.

一般鞋子可藉由鞋帶之束緊程度調整鬆緊度，調整後再將該鞋帶之二端部相互綁束固定，進而可貼合不同使用者之腳型。然而，習知之鞋帶於活動時容易鬆脫，若不慎踩到鞋帶更可能造成使用者之危險；此外，習知之鞋帶對於孩童來說亦不便於操作，外觀變化亦有限，存在亟待改善之缺弊。Generally, the tightness of shoes can be adjusted by tightening the shoelaces, and after adjustment, the two ends of the shoelaces are tied together and fixed to fit the foot shapes of different users. However, conventional shoelaces are easy to loosen during activities, and if the shoelaces are accidentally stepped on, it may cause danger to the user. In addition, conventional shoelaces are not convenient for children to operate, and the appearance changes are limited, which has shortcomings that need to be improved.

因此，有必要提供一種新穎且具有進步性之鞋帶，以解決上述之問題。Therefore, it is necessary to provide a novel and advanced shoelace to solve the above-mentioned problem.

本發明之主要目的在於提供一種鞋帶，易於操作且不易鬆脫。The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a shoelace that is easy to operate and not easy to loosen.

為達成上述目的，本發明提供一種鞋帶，包括：一本體及二頭部。該本體包括一編織層，該編織層包括複數第一股線，該複數第一股線彼此編織形成一中空部分及連通該中空部分之複數網孔，該複數網孔至少其中二者朝相異方向開放。該二頭部設於該本體之二端並固定該複數第一股線，該二頭部其中一者可選擇性地穿設於該中空部分及部分之該複數網孔。To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a shoelace, comprising: a main body and two head parts. The main body comprises a braided layer, the braided layer comprises a plurality of first strands, the plurality of first strands are braided to form a hollow portion and a plurality of meshes connected to the hollow portion, at least two of the plurality of meshes are open in different directions. The two head parts are arranged at two ends of the main body and fix the plurality of first strands, and one of the two head parts can be selectively passed through the hollow portion and part of the plurality of meshes.

以下僅以實施例說明本發明可能之實施態樣，然並非用以限制本發明所欲保護之範疇，合先敘明。The following examples are merely used to illustrate possible implementations of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention, so it should be noted in advance.

請參考圖1至3，其顯示本發明之一較佳實施例，本發明之鞋帶1包括一本體10及二頭部20。Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, which show a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The shoelace 1 of the present invention includes a main body 10 and two end portions 20.

該本體10包括一編織層11，該編織層11包括複數第一股線111，該複數第一股線111彼此編織形成一中空部分12及連通該中空部分12之複數網孔13，該複數網孔13至少其中二者朝相異方向開放。該二頭部20設於該本體10之二端並固定該複數第一股線111，該二頭部20其中一者可選擇性地穿設於該中空部分12及部分之該複數網孔13。藉此，各該二頭部20可任意穿套於該複數網孔13，不須綁束即可達到固定之效果，操作簡單且不易鬆脫。The main body 10 includes a braided layer 11, and the braided layer 11 includes a plurality of first strands 111. The plurality of first strands 111 are braided to form a hollow portion 12 and a plurality of meshes 13 connected to the hollow portion 12, and at least two of the plurality of meshes 13 are open in different directions. The two heads 20 are arranged at two ends of the main body 10 and fix the plurality of first strands 111. One of the two heads 20 can be selectively inserted into the hollow portion 12 and part of the plurality of meshes 13. In this way, each of the two heads 20 can be inserted into the plurality of meshes 13 at will, and the fixing effect can be achieved without tying, and the operation is simple and not easy to loosen.

配合參考圖3，各該網孔13之一孔徑不小於一該頭部20之一徑向尺寸，以便於穿套。該複數第一股線111包括複數相互穿套之線圈112，各該線圈112之一圈高小於各該網孔13之一孔徑且小於各該頭部20之徑向尺寸，除可避免穿錯位置之外，該複數線圈112相互穿套之部分亦可提供較佳之結構強度，避免該編織層11受力破損。較佳地，該複數網孔13至少其中二者位於該本體10之一橫截面上且於該本體10之一徑向上不相對，如圖2所示，藉此可增加該二頭部20穿設該複數網孔13之選擇性，可任意穿設分布並不限於直接徑向穿設，不易滑脫且穩定性佳；該中空部分12之一徑向尺寸大於各該網孔13之一孔徑，藉此該鞋帶1多餘的部分可容設於該中空部分12而不會過度的撐大該本體10之徑向尺寸，且該複數網孔13可有效限位穿過其中之該本體10。With reference to FIG. 3 , the diameter of each mesh hole 13 is not less than the radial dimension of the head 20 to facilitate insertion. The plurality of first strands 111 include a plurality of mutually interpenetrating coils 112, and the height of each coil 112 is less than the diameter of each mesh hole 13 and less than the radial dimension of each head 20. In addition to preventing insertion from being misplaced, the mutually interpenetrating portions of the plurality of coils 112 can also provide better structural strength to prevent the braided layer 11 from being damaged by force. Preferably, at least two of the plurality of mesh holes 13 are located on a cross-section of the body 10 and are not opposite in a radial direction of the body 10, as shown in FIG. 2 , thereby increasing the selectivity of the two heads 20 for passing through the plurality of mesh holes 13, and the mesh holes 13 can be arbitrarily distributed and are not limited to direct radial penetration, are not easy to slip off, and have good stability; a radial dimension of the hollow portion 12 is larger than a hole diameter of each of the mesh holes 13, thereby the excess portion of the shoelace 1 can be accommodated in the hollow portion 12 without excessively enlarging the radial dimension of the body 10, and the plurality of mesh holes 13 can effectively limit the body 10 passing therethrough.

該編織層11沿該本體10之一軸向受力伸縮，該編織層11伸縮前後之長度變化量與該編織層11未伸縮時之長度比值介於0.1至0.8（較佳介於0.1至0.5），藉此該編織層11可提供適當地伸縮彈性，當該鞋帶1多餘的部分穿過該編織層11時可伸張允許其通過，亦可收縮達到干涉限位效果，提供較大的摩擦阻力而不易鬆脫。各該頭部20可例如但不限包括金屬或塑膠等材質製成之固定件，亦可藉由熱壓黏合而將該本體10之一端收束為具有較高硬度之部分。The braided layer 11 is stretched and contracted along one axis of the main body 10, and the ratio of the length change of the braided layer 11 before and after stretching to the length of the braided layer 11 when it is not stretched is between 0.1 and 0.8 (preferably between 0.1 and 0.5), so that the braided layer 11 can provide appropriate elasticity. When the excess part of the shoelace 1 passes through the braided layer 11, it can be stretched to allow it to pass through, or it can be contracted to achieve the interference limit effect, providing greater friction resistance and not easy to loosen. Each of the head parts 20 can be, for example, but not limited to, a fixing part made of metal or plastic, or one end of the main body 10 can be contracted into a part with higher hardness by hot pressing and bonding.

於本實施例中，該本體10另包括一穿設於該中空部分12之芯材14，該芯材14至少部分自該複數網孔13朝外顯露，可增加結構強度且視覺效果佳。該芯材14包括一內芯141及一圍繞該內芯141之包覆層142，該內芯141之線密度小於該包覆層142之線密度；當該二頭部20其中一者穿設於該芯材14與該編織層11之間時，該芯材14可受力壓縮，避免該編織層11被過度撐張，美觀性佳。進一步說，該包覆層142由複數第二股線143交互編織而成，該包覆層142之一編織密度大於該編織層11之一編織密度，藉此該包覆層142具有較平順之表面，可避免該二頭部20穿入該芯材14中且可較順暢的相對移動，便於操作；該複數第一股線111及該複數第二股線143之顏色較佳可相異，可提供多樣化的視覺效果。較佳地，該編織層11與該芯材14不相干涉且可於該本體10之該軸向及該徑向上相對位移，便於穿設該二頭部20且該鞋帶1之部分可較順暢地穿過二者之間。於其他實施例中，該本體亦可未設有該芯材；該芯材亦可為單線結構，可依需求選用。In this embodiment, the body 10 further includes a core material 14 passing through the hollow portion 12. The core material 14 is at least partially exposed from the plurality of meshes 13 to increase the structural strength and provide a good visual effect. The core material 14 includes an inner core 141 and a coating layer 142 surrounding the inner core 141. The linear density of the inner core 141 is less than that of the coating layer 142. When one of the two heads 20 passes through the core material 14 and the woven layer 11, the core material 14 can be compressed to prevent the woven layer 11 from being overstretched, which is aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, the coating layer 142 is formed by alternately weaving a plurality of second strands 143, and a weaving density of the coating layer 142 is greater than a weaving density of the weaving layer 11, so that the coating layer 142 has a smoother surface, which can prevent the two heads 20 from penetrating into the core material 14 and can move relatively smoothly, which is convenient for operation; the colors of the plurality of first strands 111 and the plurality of second strands 143 are preferably different, which can provide a variety of visual effects. Preferably, the weaving layer 11 and the core material 14 do not interfere with each other and can move relatively in the axial direction and the radial direction of the body 10, which is convenient for inserting the two heads 20 and part of the shoelace 1 can pass between the two smoothly. In other embodiments, the main body may not be provided with the core material; the core material may also be a single-wire structure, which can be selected according to needs.
